Homes for the Holidays brings the festive spirit to Vancouver next week

The entertaining season is upon us, and if you’re looking for ideas to take your space to the next level, you need to check out Homes for the Holidays.

Vancouver’s quintessential festive season event will take place at UBC’s iconic Cecil Green Park House on Saturday, November 18 and Sunday, November 19.

The magical event will bring together five award-winning interior designers with professional florists and home décor retailers, and it’s all to support a great cause.

All proceeds will go to support Take a Hike, a Vancouver non-profit organization that provides vulnerable youth with a full-time mental health and emotional well-being program that is embedded in an alternate education classroom in public school districts. You can also donate to its programs online.

The cliff-top Cecil Green Park House will showcase delightfully festive décor ideas for attendees on a self-guided tour. Discover the latest in tablescapes, room vignettes, and more while enjoying music and refreshments at the prestigious mansion.

Make sure to wander outside and explore the Terrace of Trees, a grove of sponsored trees that is lovingly decorated by designers. The terrace overlooks the stunning gardens on the property and is also where you will discover the curated silent auction items.

Items up for bid include delicious restaurant visits, original artwork, relaxing getaways and staycations, and more. You can bid on your favourite silent auction items online and at Cecil Green Park House.
